Design service and design customization around our IP core or high speed buses (PCIe, USB3, SATA…)

IPM-NVMe

Typical storage controllers are composed of a communication interface and a Nandflash controller. In this case, all the data flow is managed by the external host processor. However, this architecture cannot sustain high performance applications. The NVMe IP core designed by IP-Maker is a powerful data transfer manager integrated into the PCIe SSD Controller between the communication interface and the Nandflash controller, therefore off-loading the host CPU.

The IP-Maker NVMe IP is UNH-IOL NVM Express compliant. It is part of the official NVMe integrator’s list: https://www.iol.unh.edu/registry/nvme
